I am sorry, it came up. It just took some time. Please delete the thread. Pretty sure the ATI card beats the intel onboard graphics as well. Thanks anyways.

I just upgraded/built a new PC and gave my girl my old PC minus a few parts. I took out my Nvidia Geforce 8800 and left her with no video card. She has a LCD monitor connected to a Gigabyte G41M-ES2L motherboard via VGA. I backed everything up and am now trying to install Windows 7. The hard...

Just got home from some long night shifts. Thank you very much! That is fixing my issue. I am curious what may have caused it, whether it is common or not. I still feel like backing up and reformatting after what seems like a major issue to me. Anyways, thanks again for the help. JohnB has...

This helped me some. http://filext.com/faq/broken_exe_association.php I created a new .exe file type and associated it with applications. My .lnk files are still broken. The exe files are working now but not .com or certain other file types. I guess I will need to recreate many of the...

Scanned the root drive from my networked PC and with bootdefender no virus found. Scanning with malwarebytes found one virus trojan.fakealert and asked to reboot to remove. I selected yes and it restarted the PC I was on not the one I scanned lol oh well. I don't think that is the correct virus...

I just got home. I have them downloaded and will try. It is odd that my computer is running without slowing down or anything, its almost as if I just have a corrupt windows file. I've never had a virus like this before. I will try burning them or running them from the network as neither the...

I don't want to go into specifics but basically I was tricked online and blackmailed into signing up to a few less than reputable sites, I believe I've taken care of that as well as I can but now suddenly my icons on my desktop lost their pics and I can't open .txt any shortcuts, and programs...

I went into the store and picked out the best looking monitor in my opinion. It was the HP2711 which I got on ebay for about 280. It is backlit and pretty nice I think. It has dvi and HDMI. I use component cables for my Wii. Does anyone know what I need to run the Wii into the monitor? I...

Hi, I am looking for a new TV for running my Xbox 360, Wii, running hdmi from PC to the HDTV, and streaming video through the Xbox. I have a surround receiver I use for sound. This will not be my primary PC monitor but more my gaming & video TV. I like my brothers HH281 Hanns G but it is...

Sorry I didn't know torrents were to not be spoken of. I mostly keep up with naruto, bleach, and new show episodes I have missed. I got in trouble years ago which prompted me to stop messing with copyrights. I love this site and will respectfully avoid the topic in the future.

Got my router ports open no problem. Got a remote client to manage my torrents via smart phone. Getting rss feeds on my phone for the torrents I'm interested in. Now I am wondering why would I need a static ip address?

Hi, Working on opening my ports for downloading torrent files and ultimately want to be able to utilize remote access from my android phone. It is not connecting and I am working on opening the correct ports for my torrent clients. I have read that I need to get a static IP, mine right...

Yeah, I thought I read something about that... I didn't expect it to cause such a problem however. I started completely over and am now operating smoothly. My only problem is that I couldn't get the primary drive to be assigned letter C. I will accept it now that process is complete, no way...

I was installing updates on this second hard drive and decided to see what I could do about the first drive that I had windows on. I am able to see it so I am running chkdisc on it now. I would like to make the second hard drive my primary however when I go into manage my computer and look at...

Well, I installed windows on drive B last night as I went to bed and woke up to a successfully formatted drive. I can also see drive A so I think I am good now. I'll back up all my data and reformat drive A and hopefully that will be the end of my problems.

I could be wrong but I'm thinking maybe the PC is expecting certain hardware configuration and I changed it so it will not boot. I got this idea from doing some research but I'll have to learn how to use some of the recovery/repair tools. I do know how to reset CMOS so perhaps I will try that...

I think it is just failing to boot for some reason. I triple checked the hard drive boot order, tried booting both drives (since they are the same model), and removed each of them and tried booting without the other; same thing every time.

Well I tried taking the new hard drive out of the picture (Which is blank and I will refer to a B from now on). So A is is in there by itself with window on it, and my data. Could I install windows on hard drive B and copy over the data from hard drive A? What about a windows repair on A in...

Hello, I recently realized my 2 hard drives were out of date and I was running out of room so I ordered two WD 1TB 64MB 7200RPM SATA3 Hard Drive (WD1002FAEX). I installed windows xp and transferred all my data to one of them last night. Had no problems did the windows updates, installed my...

Not sure what I did wrong but it was only booting from the disc so I backed up my data and did a fresh install. Seems to be working great now. May drop it back at best buy and make them help with the pin issue since they were the ones that unplugged everything last time and I have 30 days for...
